He has his first loose tooth...!!!! Is he too young or this age is normal? I'm nervous and excited because I'm afraid he'll forget and it will come out and he won't realize it. I already explained to him what to do but still.... This is my first time doing the Tooth Fairy thing and I'm soooooo excited!!!

My oldest son lost his first tooth in preschool, so he was 5 also. He got his first tooth much earlier than his siblings and starting losing his teeth earlier too (they were all around 7 before they had a wiggly tooth.)

i think he'll be fine. Just keep an eye on him of you're very nervous.

Good luck tooth fairy!!

I'm so paranoid since he's in kindergarten all day. But yea, I'll be checking on him constantly. Thanks!!!

That is a normal age. I don't think he will forget about it. Or let you forget about it lol. My son is always wiggling his when they are loose. And asking me to check it 27273 times a day to see if its more loose yet lol.

My guess is that other kids in his class have lost teeth, so he probably knows what's up.

When my boys have lost teeth at school they've been sent to the nurse where they get a tooth shaped tooth holder on a necklace to take their tooth home in. That alone made them very excited to lose a tooth. :0)

Yes, that was my son today running around the house telling everyone about his loose tooth. It was cute. But he hasn't let me forget it yet!! I already told him about the Tooth Fairy so he got more excited =)

I know losing a tooth was a big deal at my boys' preschool and elementary schools.

My middle son was a little bummed when he didn't lose a tooth in preschool because it was kind of a huge deal there. They got to write in a book how they'd lost the tooth and they got a certificate, even if they lost the tooth at home.

I sure hope your DS's school does something for him. Otherwise the tooth fairy is pretty great too.
